One of the few teardowns I’ve been in favor of was this old dump located between two stately multi-story Victorian homes. Despite a somewhat sloppy attempt to revive the place last year, it couldn’t creep past its status of “eyesore”. It was finally razed last week.

I got to thinking about the personal “dumps” in our psyches that need to be razed. I know I have more than my share. I try to prettify them because I don’t want to let them go, but someday I’ll have the strength to bulldoze ‘em.
